We report a successful pediatric bridge to transplant following application of the ProTekDuo Cannula to provide right ventricular support in a 12-year-old child with biventricular cardiomyopathy and on left ventricular assist device support. We are unaware of any other reports of pediatric use of this device in the medical literature.
